Harvey was born and raised in Vancouver, BC. When he was 23 years old, he joined the Royal Canadian Navy and served as a signalman during WWII.

After his retirement, he moved to Kamloops to be closer to his family. Harvey enjoyed many recreational sporting activities. Among his favourites were badminton, tennis, and softball.

His life of dedication and service to his family and to the Lord was truly remarkable.

A special thanks to the staff at the Kamloops Seniors Village, High Country Health Care, and others for their love and kindness towards Harvey in his later years.
